About Collette
Collette Treen is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years of experience working in organisations and in private practice across the United Kingdom. Collette commonly helps people with stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression and relationship difficulties.
Collette uses a client-centred approach. She focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. Sessions are conversational and aim to let clients talk through what matters to them.
In practice she supports people coping with life changes, grief and workplace pressures. She also works with issues such as anger, compassion fatigue, and problems linked to sexuality and LGBT concerns. Additional areas she addresses include attachment, abandonment, communication problems and feelings of emptiness.
Her work covers relational problems and family difficulties, and she helps people facing guilt, shame, isolation or young adult challenges. She can also discuss self-harm, self-love and forgiveness where relevant. Collette adapts the pace of sessions to what each person needs.
People meet Collette to talk about career questions, to process trauma and abuse, or to find ways to cope day to day. She aims to be straightforward and attentive in sessions so clients can speak openly about what they are feeling.
Client-centred work adapted for remote counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens without directing the conversation and reflects back what is said to build understanding. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns and reactions after loss.Collette will work with the client to find the right way of working. She will discuss goals and preferences and check how the approach feels over a few sessions. Deciding on the best fit is a collaborative process rather than a one-off choice.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help them fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, or reduce travel time. If you need quieter surroundings, less time away from work, or a session without video, discuss these needs when arranging the first meeting so practical arrangements can be planned.
